This chapter should have been Chapter 65 sorry for the confusion but it’s a free one now so enjoy -
Alpha Rex’s POV
I chuckle as droplets of water fall from her eyelashes and shake my head, “feel better now do you?”
She nodded with a huge smile on her face, but her eyes are full of sadness and it’s breaking me, “Clair, why are you so sad and trying to hide it from me?”
She shook her head, “I’m not really, I understand, I’m not the prettiest girl and,” she looked down at the ground, “I’m chubby,” she shrugged, “I’d rather reject you then have to accept your rejection if you don’t mind it happening that way.”
My hands cupped her face and tilted it up to my own, “I’d never reject you and don’t you think about rejecting me, because I will never accept it.” She blinked her eyes at me, and I couldn’t help but smile, “if you tell me that I am too old, or not good enough for you, I’d believe that, but you my sweet mate, are the most stunning woman I’ve ever laid my eyes on.” I removed my hands from her face and took her hand and placed a soft kiss on the back of it, “would you like to walk or sit and talk awhile.”
She shook her head and smiled, “talking is good,” she looked down at her feet, “these shoes aren’t for walking in the forest,” she sighed.
I chuckled, “no they aren’t,” I looked her up and down and smiled, “neither is that dress.”
She shook her head, “I wasn’t prepared to be in the forest,” she looked around, “I mean, we didn’t prepare at all, we just left when you called my brother, we needed to get here, Melody was our only thoughts.”
I chuckled, “so, are you saying you’ve been in that dress for the last 5 days?”
Her cheeks flushed bright red and she nodded, “I feel disgusting now and probably smell bad.”
I laughed, “you smell amazing to me, intoxicating really, I mean I’ve always loved watermelon, but to have my mate smell like one is the best.”
She giggled, “I smell like watermelon to you, really?”
I licked my lips, “you do,” I stepped closer to her, “I’m really curious if you taste as good as you smell.”
Her eyes went wide, and she took a step back, “excuse me,” she shook her head, “that’s a bit much to ask a girl now don’t you think?”
I raised my hands in surrender, “I was going to ask for a kiss.”
I didn’t think anyone’s cheeks could turn any redder then hers already did, but she proved me wrong, “oh, sorry,” she whispered.
I smiled, “well?”
She creased her brows, “well what?”
I chuckled, “can I kiss you?”
She bit her bottom lip and nodded, “sure, I guess it’s okay.”
I stepped up to her and smiled, “Clair, have you ever been kissed?”
She rolled her eyes, “once or twice.”
I arched a brow and put my arms around her waist, pulling her into me, I have a feeling she’s lying, but I’m not going to call her out on it, I’ll know soon enough. I leaned down and brushed my lips to hers, her entire body stiffened, and it took a second for her lips to move with mine before she relaxed. Yea, my girl is very inexperienced and now I need to make sure she feels confident about herself and her sexuality. I softly bit her bottom lip, and she gasped, giving my tongue access and I deepened our kiss. Her hands moved from my arms to around my neck and she moaned as I our tongue swirled around each other’s.
I pulled away and broke the kiss and she smiled up at me, “that was really nice,” she fluttered her lashes, and my heart did a summersault in my chest.
I looked into her beautiful blue eyes and smiled, “you taste so sweet, I may never get enough of you.”
She giggled, “you can kiss me again if you like.” I wasted no time capturing her lips, her hand moved into my hair and the sparks flew through my entire body with her touch. She broke our kiss as she pulled my hair, she sucked in a gulp of air and licked her lips.
I smiled, “we need to get you some clothes, you’ll be staying here and…”
She interrupted me, “staying here, I have school and there are things going on in my pack that I need to help with.”
I shook my head, “you will stay for a few weeks, Melody cannot leave right away,” I do mean she is staying here, but I also need to win her over before she agrees to it.
She smiled, “I do need to get some clothes, do you think you could drive me to a store?”
I knocked at her door, “Luna Clair, you ready?”
She opened her door and smiled, “Good morning, Alpha Rex,” she took my hand and kissed me on the cheek, “I’m ready.”
I smiled at her, it’s been 2 weeks, and she knows every pack members name and she looks adorable in her flannel shirt, tight as fuck jeans and hiking boots. We walk to the car, “have you decided what you’re going to do?”
She beamed me a beautiful smile and nodded as she climbed in the Jeep, “I’m staying here of course, how can a Luna of a pack leave it,” she shook her head.
I chuckled, “I’m sure the Alpha of this pack is thrilled with that decision.”
She shook her head, “I hope Domino will be okay with this,” she bit her bottom lip.
I nodded, “he will be fine, he has his Luna, and he already said he would miss you the second he knew I was your mate, it’s how things go Clair.”
She arched her brow, “so you knew I would stay?”
I winked at her, “I was doing everything I could think of to ensure that you would, and I obviously did it all right.”
She smiled, “you're very charming Alpha Rex, and a very good kisser.”
I laughed, “you are the first to call me charming and you make kissing you easy, with those sweet lips of yours,” I wiggled my brows, “both sets.”
She blushed, “that did feel amazing last night,” she bit her bottom lip, “but that’s as far as we will go until the union ceremony.”
I pulled in front of Melody’s cottage, “I’m good with that sweetheart, I'll lick you from top to bottom every chance you allow me too,” I winked at her as I helped her out of the jeep, “did I tell you how beautiful you are today?”
She shook her head, “no, you're slacking already Alpha.”
I pulled her into my arms, “you're beautiful, My Luna,” I captured her lips in a heated kiss.
Melody’s POVI walked from behind the desk and placed Nicholas on the couch, pushing a pillow up against him to ensure he wouldn’t fall off, I didn’t recognize my own voice when I spoke, “Gamma get over here, guard him with your life,” I walked over and stood next to my Alpha, glaring at Tommy, “my apartment, did she do that?”He nodded, “she was livid that Dominick wouldn’t take her along and was leaving her here with Clair to watch over Papa, she wouldn’t be able to intercede, sabotage or deflect any and all advances towards him by you or anyone else, your apartment was destroyed before the ship left port.” I couldn’t help the snort that left my lips, “she’s the reason I agreed to be a live in nurse, otherwise, I’d have only showed up and been here 8-10 hours a day,” I laughed, “she literally did this, she put me here, in arms reach of the one person she wanted me to stay away from.” I turned to Dominick, “you’re not the dumbass, she is.”Tommy smiled and I glared at him, “wipe th
Alpha Dominick’s POVI was happy to see Melody had begun to calm down, her flirtatiousness coming back as she quipped about me breaking down her walls on the cruise and then I knew she wouldn’t resist embarrassing Gamma Ashton with his choice of words to her. But Fabian laughing and his response, struck me as odd and then realization hit me, he’s not aware we are together now. I looked at him, “yes, I see your point, Fabian, so tell me, who should be my Luna, I mean this woman isn’t good enough for me, so who is?”He chuckled, “Claudia is good enough, she’s a proper lady, refined, dignified and charming beyond anything she is,” he sneered at Melody.I gave Mel a quick wink and she sipped her lemonade and placed the glass down, she looked at Fabian, “that’s exactly what I’ve been telling Alpha Dumbass, I don’t want him, but he seems to think it’s fun to watch me seduce his pack for some odd reason,” she shrugged.Fabian shook his head at her and then looked at me, “Alpha Dominick, if
Melody’s POVI couldn’t help but pace the kitchen, as Gamma Ashton would relay what was being said in the Alpha’s office, “what, he helped her poison the pack and thinks theirs a valid reason to do that, he’s a doctor for god sake,” I was fuming.I gasped, “she has humans helping her?”Gamma Ashton shrugged, “apparently, there are humans that don’t think that species should mix, their called, Speciophobes.” I cleared my throat, “this is beyond ridiculous, she’s creating all this over a man, over someone she was raised to think of as her brother, this is too twisted for words.”Gamma Ashton chuckled, “the summer festival should be fun, seems they have an armed militia that will gun you down during the fireworks display.”I stood there staring at him as his eyes glazed over and he began to lick his lips and a sinister smile crossed his face, as he whispered, “old fashioned hunt.”“What’s an old fashioned hunt,” I picked up Nicholas and held him as he fussed, patting his booty and roc
Alpha Dominick's POVMy heart skipped a beat when she was talking about not allowing “our pack” to be in jeopardy of being hurt, she has embraced her role as Luna and doesn’t realize it yet. We sat up most of the night thinking of different ways we could capture any of them red handed. “I think we have a plan, one that will work in capturing them by using Charles and hopefully end all this.”I woke up to her singing one of Papa’s old songs that he would blare out in his garden, as she fed our pup. It’s been a fast couple of weeks, and he has grown so much already, werewolves tend to grow quicker, but I didn’t expect just how big he’s already gotten. He’s already holding his head up and pats his Mommy’s boob like he’s grown. I stood over them and shook my head, “dude those are my toys, don’t play with them, you only get to eat from them.”I put my finger out and he grabbed onto it as he suppled from my toy, “you’re cruel little man,” I swear he smiled at me.Melody giggled, “soon
Melody’s POVI stood as loud knocking came from our front door, I looked at Dominick in surprised confusion and then many police officers rushed in, guns all aimed at me. I frantically looked around the room, my eyes landing on Charles, who looked shocked as he watched the officers enter. My eyes went to Dominck and his voice boomed, “what is going on here?”A man entered wearing a suit and waving a folded piece of paper headed towards him, as one of the officers shouted out instructions to me, “Melody Cameron, hands up and move slowly away from the table, now, move.”I gulped down the lump that suddenly formed in my throat, I shook my head, “what’s this about, what’s going on?”The officer repeated himself and motioned with his drawn gun for me to move to the side, I looked at Dominick but complied, my hands shook as I held them up at my side and moved cautiously away from the table. A female officer grabbed one of my hands and then the other and roughly pulled them behind my back
Alpha Dominick’s POV Holding Axel back from killing every police officer and detective in my pack house was easier than watching them put Melody in the back of that police car. Her eyes pleading with me as she told me to take care of Nicholas to keep him safe broke me in ways I never thought possible. When the police car holding their Luna pulled away from the pack house, the entire pack howled in despair and anguish as if they could feel my own. I glanced out at them all and nodded to them, “Our Luna will return,” I shouted as I slapped the folded paper I held in one hand against the palm of my other.I turned and walked back inside, closing the door, I looked at Gamma Ashton, “get my son and give him to me,” I looked at the rest of our guests, “Beta Collin, take Charles to my office, I’ll be there in a few minutes,” I didn’t miss the surprise in Charles’ eyes as Beta Collin approached him. I turned to Elaine, Steve and Carla, “follow me.”I walked back into the dining room and w
Melody’s POV“I want an attorney,” I smiled at Detective Hart. There was a knock on the 2 way mirror and I rolled my eyes, “seriously, like how Law and Order is this shit show,” I laughed.He stood and was gathering up the photos, “really Detective, do I look like a killer,” I fluttered my lashes at him, “I’m a new mother for god sake, what size are those panties anyway, my ass is double that and has been for the past 3 months, so unless he was on ice, those panties certainly weren’t on this ass,” I turned my head glaring at the mirror, “none of you are very smart.”The door opened and a female officer walked in, handcuffs in her hands and stared at me, she was hesitant and I knew why, she’s a werewolf and I’m her Luna, her eyes met mine and I arched a brow, “go on, do your job.”Her eyes flitted to the Detective, then to the mirror and back to me, she whispered, “sorry Luna, could you please put your hands behind you.” I did as asked and she put the cuffs on me, very gently and loo
Alpha Dominick’s POV I was pacing the floor waiting and rocking our son, who refused to take a bottle of his mother’s breast milk, he wanted her nipple and I can’t blame him there so do I but I’m not the one that will starve if he don’t have it. Elaine and Carla both tried to get him to take it but neither had any success. He needed his Momma and there was nothing that would calm him until she was here. I texted Steve and he said it wouldn’t be too long now, they had just paid the bail and were waiting for her to be brought to them.I was half way out the door when his car pulled up in front of the pack house, I raced down the stairs as she stepped out of the back of the car. I scooped her up into my arms and kissed every inch of her face before crashing my lips to her. She moaned into my mouth as she wrapped her arms around my neck, kissing me back with a fierceness I’d never felt from her before. She pulled back and smiled, “I’m soaked.”My eyes went wide, “we can’t, you’re…”
Alpha Dominick’s POVShe shot me a look and growled, “Alpha Dominick enough already, go, go somewhere else allow Gamma Ashton to teach me properly,” she glared at me with her hands on her curvy hips.I shook my head, “not happening, I need to make sure his hands are where they need to be,” I stated flatly.Gamma Ashton walked over to me, “Alpha Dominick, I understand why you are acting this way, but believe me, I wouldn’t go there again, I didn’t know who she was back then, I am well aware of who my Luna is now and would never cross that line.”I heard her giggle and my eyes darted to her, as she sashayed over to us, she put her hands round my neck, “My Alpha,” she fluttered her lashes, “don’t you trust me to behave.”I growled, “I didn’t think you knew what that word meant pumpkin,” I kissed the tip of her nose.She giggled, “I do now, I’m here to train, to learn how to fight, to defend myself when my big badass Alpha isn’t around, so how can I learn if you’re here growling at my ins
Melody’s POV Sitting in the Alpha office listening to Levi and looking at the evidentiary packet that he received was daunting, but feeling Dominick’s emotions was something I hadn’t expected, he was livid with what he was looking at. I arched a brow to him, “what are you looking at Alpha?”He pushed a photo towards me, and I gasped as I looked at it, it was a picture of me with Cliff at the frozen pond, sitting next to each other, lacing up our skates. I shook my head, “this isn’t real, I told you both, he was only a neighbor, we spoke cordially at best.”Levi looked at his Alpha, “Alpha Dominick, I need to speak with Luna Melody in private, some things need to be only between she and I.”Dominick was infuriated, “No, whatever you need to talk about I should know, we have no secrets,” he looked at me with question marks in his eyes, “do we?”I shook my head, “of course not, go on Levi you can speak freely because I will.”Levi shook his head, “no, you don’t understand, this is hum
Alpha Dominick’s POVMy meeting with Beta Collin and Gamma Ashton was unexpectedly brief, I was making sure that security was tight tonight, not everyone will know that Melody has a wolf, only our inner circle, so the perimeter around the pack house needs to be secure for when she shifts. We were going over the plans when my dick hardened and pictures flashed in my mind of our first night together, where I worshiped ever inch of her. I sat back in my chair and closed my eyes, she needed to stop thinking about it or I was going to cum in my pants and in front of my Beta and Gamma. I heard chuckles and the door shut, my eyes snapped open and I was alone, they left knowing what was happening, I mind linked her, “Luna you need to stop thinking about that right now, you’re making me hard and ready to explode.”I heard her giggle but that was all I heard, when a soft knock hit my door. I adjusted myself and called out, “Enter.”The door opened and her scent hit me full force arousal and
Melody’s POV I shook my head, “yes, I still want you to mark me, change me into a shifter, I want to feel free like Axel and he deserves a mate that he can have as well, don’t you pretty boy.”I had no idea what I had just done, Dominck’s smile was so wide and his canines grew, his eyes were pure obsidian as he pushed me backwards and hovered over me, his voice a mixture of his own and Axels, “you’re mine forever pumpkin,” he lowered his head and I moved mine to the side, giving him complete access to my neck.A shiver ran down my spine as he licked and then sucked on the spot that drove me insane with pleasure, my core was throbbing and then pain struck as his teeth sunk into my neck. I whimpered, but then warmth flowed through my body and my heart thundered in my chest as it overflowed with love and admiration, sparks ignited along my neck and spread all over my body and the most sultry moan left my lips as white light exploded behind my closed eyelids and then darkness took over.
Alpha Dominick’s POVI knew I needed to speak with Catherine, I needed to know if she was clueless in this entire sorted affair or if she was helping Charles with Claudia’s plan on killing Melody. I was more than happy to fine out she had nothing to do with any of Charles’ misdeeds. It was hard to see her so upset, her pup is due any day now. I know when I tell Melody about her, she’ll feel the need to go see her, give her reassurance that she’s not alone in this, after listening to her with Carla this morning, I’m sure of it now.Returning to the pack house and met with Melody and Carla about Catherine, I was more than shocked when Carla asked Melody if she could go with her to meet Catherine. I had serious doubts about whether or not she should go, but Melody shocked me, “Carla, that might be a great idea, I know this is hurting you and she is feeling the pain of a bond, the two of you may be able to support each other better than anyone else could.”I called Levi, I know I’m bot
Melody’s POV Waiting to be released I thought of the evidence they had against me, my mind trying to figure out how my underwear had gotten into his apartment, it wasn’t one of the sets he had stolen from my laundry and even if it had been how the hell did my DNA get on it. I thought of the photo’s that I only glanced at, obviously they’re photoshopped, but why would he go to such lengths, it made no sense. I never gave him any reason to believe I was interested, not in the slightest, didn’t even flirt with him, so why? My thoughts stop the minute I hear the cell being opened, I look up and Sargant Luca is standing there a smile on her face, “Luna, your bail has been posted, come with me, your attorney is waiting to take you home."The ride back was non-stop chatter, Levi asking me if I’d ever slept with Cliff, all about our relationship and where exactly was I on June 1st. After answering his questions, I couldn’t help but laugh at this entire situation, “I’m not going to let th
